The Afterbirth - Death Invents Itself
It races at the speed of human evolution
Of time, of technology
An ever-present promise trivializing threats
No way to predict, only place bets
Over and over but never revealed
The gate only works one way then it is sealed
Many have wondered, others have preached
Only one way to find out, that's to reach
With one hand open into the dark
You try to feel and grasp
The other hand won't lеt you go
Though you beg to dis-attach
Death invents itsеlf

Devour... Doomed to roam an island inhabited in life Soul of a man - no body or mind Lost as they linger in time A hungry ghost which moans and longs to die Hear them - at

Researchers journey into distant lands Unearthing temples beneath desert sands Presence of evil, animals feel it Under the black cloud of demonic spirits Sickness and plague,
